I went through that hell. My solution was to massively upgrade my computer
(Win 2k, dual cpus, tons of memory, second computer for all other apps,
etc.), buy data from second parties, and use Powerquest Drive Image to image
the ProSuite drive every night to a second drive and restore when the
crashes happen.
Now crashes are infrequent and manageable, but they should have warned us of
the requirements. Perhaps no one there really used it real time, so they
actually didn't know.
